MESA, ARIZ. — The Cubs continued to add much-needed depth to their pitching staff Wednesday. They’ve agreed to a major-league deal with lefty Steven Brault, a Sun-Times source confirmed.
Brault, 29, has spent his whole big-league career with the Pirates, amassing a 4.77 ERA. Before adding Brault, the Cubs carried just four left-handed pitchers on their 40-man roster. Brault has one option year remaining.
